Clan cats. They had a vague awareness of them—well, perhaps a little more than vague—having been regaled with tales about them that they were never entirely certain were true from the time they were still a tiny kit, several moons past. They'd believed them then, along with every other word and story that their father had told them; he was, if nothing else, a fabulous storyteller, and that was just it. But after all, what kit wouldn't have trusted the word of their parents? Fictions on top of fictions, lies on top of lies. The wool wouldn't cover their eyes forever, and it hadn't, which is why they had gone. It took several cycles of the sun to come this far, far from the lands where they had grown up, and they had more or less been traveling completely blindly, following tiny bits of information they could recall from stories they hadn't heard for moons, using the only method of guidance that they had been taught: the brightest star could lead.
As they edged closer to the pines, and further from the Twoleg houses, though, the cat-scent became stronger and clearer—so some of it, at least, must've been true after all. Of course, none of these scents were ones that they recognized, and they were quite strange to the nose of a loner who had never encountered Clan cats before. Unsure where their paws should take them next, they linger where the scent had been the strongest so far—unbeknownst to them, the SkyClan border, ears pricked to listen for the sound of any other cats nearby.
